Giuliana Cunéaz's AI Dream Machine at Galleria Gagliardi, Turin

exhibition · 2026-04-26

At Galleria Gagliardi in Turin, Giuliana Cunéaz (Aosta, 1959) presents her solo exhibition 'Qui ma non ora', exploring the intersection of dreams and technology. The centerpiece is 'La belle au bois dormant', an AI-powered dream machine where viewers lie on a futuristic bed, type a phrase on a tablet, and watch it transform into a personalized visual projection on a monitor mimicking a canopy. Cunéaz, who began working with AI in late 2022, describes the technology as a tool for investigating the imaginary and the invisible. The exhibition also features 'Spiriti Guida', augmented reality works depicting animal, plant, or human archetypes that bridge the visible and invisible. These AR pieces, activated via QR codes, combine static and dynamic imagery. The show challenges traditional art perception, positioning Cunéaz as a pioneer in digital contemporary art.
